League of Legends Match History

I often hear people telling people that blaming themselves for the lost games is the way to go which makes no sense because its a 5 man game anyway ......I just played this game and this is just one of many that turned out this way...Im not high elo but i do my best and I do my job ......idk what else im supposed to do honestly ....ive blamed myself so much tha honestly im starting to wonder how is it that Im blaming myself when i get teammates like this constantly...and it gets worse and worse every time. Im not getting people of my skill level on my team. And thats is kinda trapping because when they bring down my mmr I only keep getting worse and worse players....so even tho my skill level it how u say above it doesn't matter because i have 4 other people on my team working against me?......... Im starting to think you dont get rewarded for doing well and your best anymore u just get what everyone else decides to give you... Im losing hope honestly . This isnt fun and its lost it competitive nature.

For those of you who read this and can understand my dismay I say to you hey what can we do?...leave? quit?

its our fault that out teamate dont know how to play their roles. its our faults that they dont listen when we try to explain. its out faults that we try hard and fail time and time again. its out faults that we dont get a chance to be our bests. hey idk about anyone else but this game isnt healthy.

I dont think league is fair anymore. I think is set in a way that some profiles will climb and climb because its set that way and som will just never scape the surface because the system wont allow it... but whatever man all a guy can do id have hope... and im losing mine

The idea isn't to blame yourself... it is to check what you could have done better.

We all have games (wins or loses) where we know we could do a better play or consider the other options we could try. Sure, teammates aren't always the best, but you always have to at least think about how you could help them.

Wins, loses, they don't really matter as long as you don't at least progress in game knowledge and tactics. Sure, I had headaches when I gave someone my main role or got auto-filled just to see them getting destroyed, but there are games where I also see good players that try their best. And even in bad games I gain experience.

Just do your best and if you feel tilted/upset, stop playing. This is a game after all, so you should have fun when climbing. Try new strategies, explore champions and see how you can use them. Find your weak spots and try to solve them. If the games become stale, then change your play style to make them fresh.

Just be Honest with yourself and recognize where you could have played better.

First of all blaming yourself is different from taking responsibility. Don't blame yourself, take responsibility. If you need me to elaborate on this just ask.

Depends on your goals.

You wanna get out of silver or gold? Do whatever, blame teammates matchmaking whatever. You'll probably get there just by playing enough games.

You wanna be great? You take responsibility for every loss. Noob teammate? I didn't help enough. Teammates not following instructions? I need to lead better. Teammate can't position? I need to peel and ping what to focus. Teammate got caught? I needed to forsee it and prevent it by pinging or warding. They ignored the pings because they're tilted? I need to adapt my leadership to help those kinds of people.

Recognize that there was a way to win any game, and analyze the steps you could have taken to win. Then try them out the next time. Rinse repeat, until you're satisfied.

Take notes on every game, and take time to study after every game. Review before every game.

Like I said, depends on how good you want to be.

People have been saying the same things for years about why they dont climb. And every season they make it sound like its a new thing.

This isn't even just a league thing, its a life skill. You can rage about how terrible your teammates are, and still look at the game objectively to see what u could have improved. People love to focus in on that one game in their match history they popped off and still lost, because it paints a prettier picture than to look at all the lackluster performances in their match histort that gives a real picture of why theyre stuck. If u pop off in all your games, youll climb. Getting lucky and outperforming here and there, is not grounds for considering yourself better than the elo youre in. You have to be able to consistently outperform.

This applies to anything in life, youll never improve at something that your not recognizing yourself as the one holding u back at.

The people that tell you not to blame others ever are doing it for 2 reasons. 1 -- they don't want you to let your animosity leak into the team chat. 2 -- they could have an ulterior motive in that they don't want you to watch the replays and find out truth, they want you to just accept that you are bad and not improve so that you won't be a challenge for them.

The best players are those that can think logically about why things went wrong. Players should not assume that just because you blame someone that you're going to let your emotions control you and force you to do things that you might regret later.

It's been like this since last season.

Yeah blaming yourself for games that wasn't your fault doesn't make sense and obviously you can play better but that won't even get you higher unfortunately.

I just posted about this in rant, this game makes no sense. Had someone tell me "its just league", like that' some how excuses the garbage of a game we have right now.
